For the answer to the question above asking to e<span>xplain why the events "getting a black marble" and "getting a red marble" are mutually exclusive.
</span>A marble can have only one color, so you cannot choose a marble that is both black and red. Therefore the events are mutually exclusive (cannot happen simultaneously)
Answer:
-3, 1, 4 are the x-intercepts
Step-by-step explanation:
The remainder theorem tells you that dividing a polynomial f(x) by (x-a) will result in a remainder that is the value of f(a). That remainder will be zero when (x-a) is a factor of f(x).
In terms of finding x-intercepts, this means we can reduce the degree of the polynomial by factoring out the factor (x-a) we found when we find a value of "a" that makes f(a) = 0.

For the given polynomial, we notice that the sum of the coefficients is zero:
1 -2 -11 +12 = 0
This means that x=1 is a zero of the polynomial, and we have found the first x-intercept point we can plot on the given number line.
Using synthetic division to find the quotient (and remainder) from division by (x-1), we see that ...
f(x) = (x -1)(x² -x -12)
We know a couple of factors of 12 that differ by 1 are 3 and 4, so we suspect the quadratic factor above can be factored to give ...
f(x) = (x -1)(x -4)(x +3)
Synthetic division confirms that the remainder from division by (x -4) is zero, so x=4 is another x-intercept. The result of the synthetic division confirms that x=-3 is the remaining x-intercept.
The x-intercepts of f(x) are -3, 1, 4. These are the points you want to plot on your number line.
11 mins
5:00
5:12
5:24
5:36
5:48
6:00
so the minutes go up in 12s meaning that their will be a bus at 7 and 8 so then you can work out
8:00
8:12
8:24
8:36
8:48
and 8:48 - 8:37 = 11 minutes waiting time
10 (> or = to) 2.00 + 0.75x
Sorry. I don't have that symbol on my keyboard. but her ten dollars has to be greater than or equal to whatever the cost is so that's why that symbol has to be used in this case. 2.00 is the flat rate and add 0.75 multiplied by however many miles she is taking!
Hope this helps!
